Product description
Constitutional Criminal Procedure is a book which covers constitutional principles of criminal procedure
The Constitution of South Africa has enshrined the rights of citizens who come into contact with the criminal justice system, therefore regulating the powers of the police, the prosecution and the courts. Legal restraints on the state's ability to combat crime have thus brought the constitutional principles of criminal procedure into the public debate and political contestation.
